At InfoComm 2026, BZBGEAR introduced XLink-ONE, a proprietary AV-over-IP distribution system that transmits 4K@120Hz and 8K@60Hz content over standard 1 Gigabit Ethernet, eliminating the need for expensive 10G infrastructure. The system, built around a custom codec, supports HDMI 2.1 with 48Gbps bandwidth, end-to-end latency under one frame, AES 256 encryption, USB-over-IP, multi-stream distribution, video walls, picture-in-picture, integrated scaling, and frame-accurate AV sync. Developed with a key technology partner, XLink-ONE launches as a family of six products, with select SKUs shipping from the show floor.
The company also expanded its VP Series with the BG-4K-VP1616, a 16x16 seamless 4K matrix switcher that also functions as a video wall processor with up to seven wall modes per monitor and a multiviewer displaying up to 16 sources on a single output. It supports 4K@60Hz 4:4:4, HDCP 2.2, Dolby and DTS 5.1 audio with independent analog extraction, EDID management, and seamless scaling. Control options include front panel, IR remote, RS-232, IP, web GUI, and the BG-Switch-Control app.
In AI conferencing, BZBGEAR debuted the BG-Cyclops-Pro, an all-in-one 4K UHD video bar with a dual-lens system featuring a 120° panoramic lens and 12x optical zoom. AI capabilities include auto-framing, speaker tracking, and Smart Gallery, which uses sound localization and facial recognition to dynamically arrange participants. Audio includes a six-element beamforming microphone array with acoustic echo cancellation, automatic gain control, and noise suppression, plus a full-range speaker. The unit supports BYOM/BYOD workflows with built-in Wi-Fi, wireless screen projection, USB 3.0, HDMI, and RJ45.
The BG-Commander-UltraX collapses a production switcher, PTZ joystick controller, capture device, and recorder into a portable unit. It accepts up to 4K input across four HDMI channels, with dual HDMI outputs, a USB-C virtual camera output for direct connection to platforms like Zoom and OBS, and direct-to-USB/SD recording. Features include a built-in 4D PTZ joystick, sliding T-bar, 7-inch LCD touchscreen, PTZ control over ONVIF 2.8 and VISCA-over-IP with tally light integration, chroma key, picture-in-picture, logo overlay, and multiple transition effects.
BZBGEAR is investing in HDMI 2.1 and native 4K120 workflows across its catalog, exemplified by XLink-ONE, and targeting the growing esports venue market with ultra-low latency, high-refresh-rate signal handling, dense multi-source switching, and video walls. The company's booth at InfoComm 2026 (N8051) will showcase the full range of PTZ cameras, production switchers, controllers, 4K/8K processors, video walls, multiviewers, and signal testing equipment.
“AV-over-IP has been part of our DNA from day one, but the category has been coasting on incremental updates for years — and our customers deserve better than incremental,” said Eugene Bocharov, CEO of BZBGEAR. “XLink-ONE is the breakthrough we've been building toward: true HDMI 2.1, 4K120 performance over the network they already have, with no compromise on latency or security.”
